Masters 2023 Round 3 tee times: Saturday’s pairings and golf major schedule today

Tiger Woods will take part in the third round of the Masters after scrapping his way through a drenched Augusta National in the rain-delayed second round.

Brooks Koepka leads on -12 and looks back to his dominant best, but Jon Rahm is chasing and just two shots behind.

Amateur Sam Bennett has been the surprise name at the top of the leaderboard, and has the second-best score after 36 holes from any amateur at the Masters, he’s four behind the leader at -8.

Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas were among the big names not able to make the cut and their major season begins in disappointment after being heavily fancied to slip on the green jacket.

Here is all the information over tee times and playing partners for the third round on Saturday, along with everything else you need to know:
